mongodb typeerror

[charles]

$ mongo
use nodebb

db.createUser( { user: "nodebb", pwd: "passwordhere", roles: [ "readWrite" ] } )

getting this error
TypeError: Property 'createUser' of object nodebb is not a function

what am i doing wrong?

My first guess: Using debian (standard repositories), thus mongodb 2.4.x and browsing the docs on 3.2.x Try or install a more up-to-date mongodb version by hand; Since NodeBB requires 2.6 or higher, you're better off with this.
